SER NATIONAL WRAPS UP 2025 AND LOOKS AHEAD TO OPPORTUNITIES IN 2026
Nation’s Service-Employment-Redevelopment Network Expands and Prevails Across the U.S. and Puerto Rico
“On behalf of SER National and the SER Network of Affiliates, we salute the more than 1 million program participants we have reached and served this year. They entered our doors at more than 200 locations across the country and in Puerto Rico, with high hopes and expectations of being uplifted and transformed. I proudly announce that we met their needs through our numerous training, education, and assistance services,” said Ignacio Salazar, President & Chief Executive Officer.
“The reports show that our program graduates are more robust, better equipped, and eager to progress or return to our nation’s workforce to sustain themselves and their families. From the country’s eastern shores to the Pacific, we have witnessed the most incredible reward people can experience: self-esteem. Their dignity and self-confidence soared when they received their certificate, diploma, or license and were recognized by family, friends, and employers. This experience was priceless,” adds Salazar.
“SER National and the SER Network of Affiliates will continue to remain focused on the mission of service within America’s local communities in 2026. We pledge to keep venturing out into neighborhood centers, churches, and civic associations to share our passion for reaching the historically underserved. Count on us to be on watch with our one-on-one attentiveness and caring for every individual we meet. These principles have set us apart for over 60 years, and with God’s blessing, we will prevail with servant hearts even in challenging times. May 2026 bring peace and prosperity to you, and may God continue to bless this great nation we call our home,” said Salazar.
